We will track your package, and contact you when it has been received.

Samples will be processed through Quality Control and staged for library production and sequencing. You will receive reports for each step in real time. See Pre-QC data will be provided in 1-2 days from receipt, library data in 5-7 days, and sequencing data in 21 days or less. All services should be rendered in 21 days or less. Due to the nature of research services, we have a 14 day grace period to account for delays. If results of the service have not been received in 35 calendar days any payments made will be refunded to the originating Credit Card or Bank Account, or the service will be rendered free of charge.

All orders will receive as many as four sample reports, depending on the services order for your project, including:

Pre-Production QC: RNA/DNA Quality Control and Concentration Checks. User receives (a) Sample Summary containing order details and sample tracking details/ID’s, concentration data collected from Qubit and/or PlateReader, and quality scores to assess sample integrity from TapeStation4200 or Fragment Analyzer systems, (b) unaltered electropherograms, and (c) custom quality scores for challenging samples which serve as a predictor of success based on our experiences with marginal quality and/or quantities of material for NGS or genotyping. This is particularly helpful for users working with aged or limiting templates who must decide whether investing in data generation is practical (or not) for certain specimens.

Analysis Summary: If ordered, you will receive a detailed analysis files as described in your quotation which generally will include (a) alignment and/or filtering practices, (b) analysis metrics, (c) test statistics, and (d) summary of software/code useage associated with all stages of analysis.

Service Core Summary: This final report is offered to all Clients which summarizes the nature of the study, chemistry/materials used, SOP’s executed, and summary data plots and quality assurance statistics which ensures our commitment to quality is being met and you have all the information needed for publication and reporting purposes.

A Note about automation and our Touchless Total Prep System: We are in the process of intellectual protection of the molecular system which we have developed and refer to as the ‘Touchless Total Prep System ‘, ‘TTPS’, or ‘T2Prep’ system. The system itself is a series of customized consumables that work with standard SBS 96 and 384 thermal cyclers. Reactions have not been overtly re-formulated, rather, the custom aspects of the system allow for a unique method of moving liquids and performing purifications in a complex workflow. A few instances of customized steps to purify, concentrate, and/or normalize templates exist to ensure high levels of batch consistency. Finally, the system is a simple closed tube format that protects the integrity of each sample from cross contamination. GB is committed to scientific transparency and thus, any use of this system for a specific application will be thoroughly described in the Service Core Summary (including internal validation data where custom iterations require description). We welcome questions and partnerships about how this tool can be deployed on a greater scale for your research or in your own lab in the near future. Once the system is protected and ready to be marketed and sold as a standalone product, there will be additional supporting information that can be referenced.
